And thoughts of a Tiamaris!

[wingsofdragon_badgeofhawk]

Fortunately (or perhaps unfortunately), Tiamaris was not going to give Kaylin that ammo. In fact, she actually gets to see him look shocked.

"... I see. If that voice had called me from a later moment, I would have either refused to answer, or have lost something I never thought I would find. Not while the Emperor still rules."

It'd take some time to digest that thought, still - there's a difference between being told something and living through it - but! The thought of him, ruling a fief! He almost laughed.

"And this Tara-" letting the word stir a little, he added, "For Tower, I can assume?"

There's just a glint of gold in those eyes now, Kaylin; he's still wary, still suspicious, but being able to talk is calming those nerves.

YAY

[kaylinneya]

A small exasperated huff. "She made herself look like a kid, I couldn't keep calling her tower when she looked like a kid." No need to say the thing about her mother. Embarrassing enough doing it the once.

Still, shock was always a fun eye colour, in any race. And there might be a small self satisfied smirk in having provoked it. "If Tara arranged for you to come here, then we can presume the fief is still safe. If she didn't.... " she didn't need to finish that sentence. Because the fief HAD to have a lord. Only ***** reason Nightshade was still this side of breathing. Even Marcus was ready to kill him at this point.

[wingsofdragon_badgeofhawk]

"Well now, that does sound like you."

At least Kaylin can pick and choose which embarrassments she has to re-live through?

Tiamaris let out a long-suffering sigh.

"I take it you've spent a fair amount of time in this place?"

You know what's coming next, fellow student of Lord Sanabalis~

[kaylinneya]

If she could have reached his foreleg, she would have kicked him. The look on her face made it clear she was considering it anyway.

"Way too **** much." Oh come on, Tiamaris. Cut her a break.... She's been through way too **** much for lessons....

[wingsofdragon_badgeofhawk]

You know very well that will only hurt your leg, Kaylin. Spare him.

Tiamaris rolled his eyes.

"If you've been paying attention to what's happened here, then you are able to give a report on it."

He stretched his wings, aching somewhat at the thought that, while he hadn't quite been stripped of a hoard, he'd been looking forward to a good flight. And until there was concrete proof the Outcaste was not here, he could not fly here either.

"Or, if you're certain you can't, can you at least take us to someone who can?"

Bit of a shot in the dark, there, but nothing ventured, nothing gained!

[kaylinneya]

She huffed slightly, and glared. All things considered, while she'd rather report to Marcus, this beat the ****s out of reporting to the Arkon. She lifted her chin lightly, because it couldn't ***** well hurt, and started speaking. "The people here call themselves Wakened, and claim that this is reality unlike our real lives. There do not seem to be any natives to this world, at least none that I could find, though som report having been here for years. Records access is not confined to the mirror network, there are other devices people here can use to access records and to communicate, and small devices that can be carried seem to be the norm, not the *****ed exception." Her own mirror was still too **** large to carry.

"There is no money here, worse, there are no ****** laws. No ruling body. There is a Task Force, but we're supposed to work on obvious morality and so far the one arrest I made was let go with a *****ed warning because there was no *****ed law saying he COULDN'T leave a ***** ton of broken glass where kids were known to play. One of those kids was furious that someone killed that same man over the public mirror network, but that we weren't allowed to arrest her. It was clearly a suicide, however," a one shouldered shrug. She hardly had to point out to a Dragon who was also a Hawk that *****ing off a Dragon counted as suicide and the Dragon was not legally accountable. She might hate that, but it was still the law as she knew it.

"Everyone in this ******ed place has magic, but because it's Ravellon of course none of it works like anyone expects. It's worse than the **** chaos sto..... And you haven't lived through that yet!" Have a long diatribe in French, Leontine, German, and Elantran that ends with the one curse word she knows in Dragon.

Have fun with that.

[wingsofdragon_badgeofhawk]

Very slowly, Tiamaris put up one large claw/hand to his head.

He just knew this situation was going to give him a headache.

"Because why would Ravellon have laws?" he muttered, then shook his head and lowered the claw. Tried to transform back- and couldn't.

He was strongly considering joining you in swearing, Kaylin. But first:

"You picked up that last word in... the future, I take it?" From whom? would be his next question.

[kaylinneya]

Oh the smug smirk on her face. "You tried to ensure I'd never let the Arkon or Sanabalis know where I learned it." She might be looking a little too pleased with that.

[wingsofdragon_badgeofhawk]

Tiamaris did his best to sigh slowly.

"'Tried?'" Never a good sign.

"In any case, how large is this... city? If this manifestation counts as a city. And who else is trapped, here?"

If trapped was the right word - let alone the word others chose to use. Chaos.

[kaylinneya]

Her lips actually twitched up in something that was almost a smile.

"Smaller than Elantra. Less populated. Still enough to be concerning, especially giving some of the powers of some of the people here. Did I mention no laws?" she asked, scowling a bit.
